    1. You need your Sky viewing card inserted to view the channels. I am using an ROI card. Can someone else confirm/deny this?

    2. I have UTV and ITV1 Tyne Tees stored and neither offer any Teletext service. Is this correct or does anyone else get text? I can get text on other channels that support it (e.g. BBC 1)

    3. The Tyne Tees region doesn't broadcast in 16:9 widescreen - it crops it to 14:9. Do any other regions do this?

    Another thing I've noticed is that if you turn on Subtitles-it works on all the ITV channels.
    If anyone was watching Channel tonight-the Cropped version of widescreen was woefull-hope thats not whats appearing on 103 in St Hellier!
    Theres a very nice Digital ITV text service on ITV Digital-So they should make it available on Sky.
